Haunted (With a little advise in the description)

This is the only song I've ever written and completed. I wrote it about a bad relationship I just couldn't get myself away from. I'm sure everyone can relate to that.

It seemed like no matter what I tried, I just couldn't let myself do the right thing.

Emotional scars run deeper than any scars you will ever know, and when someone has you under their thumb like he did, getting away is harder than letting yourself take the abuse.

It took me a long time to learn that no one deserves to be treated like that. Hell, eight years later, and I still have very little self-esteem.

I've always had low self-esteem, so it was very easy to fall into that abusive trap. It started with little things like "You shouldn't wear that." or "You'd look so much better if you dressed like this.".

Those things seemed so innocent at the time, but in retrospect, it was the start of him controlling me... and me letting it happen.

I'm not trying to sound callous or anything, but becoming a victim starts with the victim. If I had never let the behavior start, it never would have escalated.

Now I'm not saying that it's the victims fault; Of course it's not. But there comes a point in which you have to say enough is enough.

I know it's hard. Believe me! I've been there. It's hard to convince yourself that you don't deserve it when you've spent so long convincing yourself that you do.

Anyway, I guess I just felt so passionate about the situation, I was able to write a song. So, here it is.

Please comment and tell me what you honestly think, even if you hate it.

Hi can you send the lyrics? Can not follow. I am good with reading lips, but this one is hard. And love your face on 0.18 ;)

Also had your cover of video killed the radio star adressed into the voting list of youtubelive, maybe.....

If there were a Greco-Roman Goddess of playing the guitar while singing, her name would be BrooklynGuitarGirl.
